‘We are living through the consequences of a historic rupture’

Burhanettin , Turkiye’s head of the Directorate of Communications, said Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza reflects a deeper transformation of global politics, warning that the erosion of international institutions has enabled atrocities to unfold with limited accountability.

“[The] world is not just transitioning, it has already transitioned. We are living through the consequences of a historic rupture,” he said.

Describing Gaza as the clearest manifestation of this breakdown, Duran said: “Genocide, in the case of Israeli genocide … has returned to the centre of international politics, not as an exception, but as a tolerated reality.” He added that institutions designed to prevent such crimes now “fail publicly, repeatedly, and structurally.”

Israel’s war on Gaza’s healthcare continues in full force under ‘ceasefire’

On November 5, 2023, just a couple of months after the beginning of this latest assault on Palestine, Dr Maisara Azmi Al Rayyes, aged 28, was brutally murdered along with most of his close family in an Israeli military missile strike on his family home in Gaza City.

아무리 1세계 극우화가 트렌드라고는 하지만, 이번 일본 중의원 선거 결과가 이정도까지 나왔다는건 단순히 세계적 극우화 흐름 때문이기만 한게 아니라 일본 야권이 심각하게 무능한거다 오키나와 의석까지 자민당한테 싹쓸이 당한거면 도대체

Not the Last Word: Maja’s Statement on the End of the Trial

In court on 4.02.26

„For 16 days of hearings I sat shackled on the wooden bench behind me and listened attentively as my life was negotiated in this trial. I was silent about the charges. There were little more than two weeks of hearings, but when I look in the mirror, it seems like it must have been years. In my first attempt to find a “last word” for this trial, I described the person I am today as a fading flower because a person also needs sunlight to survive — and, above all, closeness, emotional security, and community.

Yet all of that is denied us, society’s incarcerated.
Esteemed prosecution, in my case, it did not work. Yes, even if I am shaking today, afflicted with anxiety and nightmares, if all emotions have left me after days of loneliness, even if it chokes me to see how many other people have to suffer under this political trial I nonetheless retain a friendly smile as well as a morality — a universal morality.

And when I lose my breath in my cell, I look up at the strip of sky where I saw wild geese in the autumn, and I hold onto the belief that solidarity is stronger than force….“

그러니까 가이낙스계 제작자들의 느슨한 얼개의 애니메이션은 그 구조가 이렇다. 작품을 느슨하게 만들어놓으면 꼭 극장판이 나와서 "응, 아니야." 하고 뒤통수를 후려 갈긴다. 다른 사람들은 이게 무슨 말인지 이해하지 못해도 에바 팬들은 알거다. 두번이나 당했으니까.

Compare it to the treatment of Ilaria Salis:

"Another alleged assailant in the 2023 attacks, Italian anti-fascist activist Ilaria Salis, was jailed in Hungary for over a year following the assaults, resulting in a diplomatic dispute between Rome and Budapest over her treatment in detention.

Salis was released to house arrest in May 2024 and released a month later after she gained legal immunity by winning a seat in the European Parliament."

A brilliant and gifted young doctor specialising in women’s and children’s health, Dr Maisara had returned to serve his besieged and occupied homeland after completing his master’s degree at King’s College London as a Chevening Scholar in 2019. Until the day he was killed, he repeatedly risked his life to provide desperately needed healthcare to his people under relentless Israeli attacks.

The Department of Defense has quietly signed a $210 million deal to buy advanced cluster shells from one of Israel’s state-owned arms companies, marking unusually large new commitments to a class of weapons and an Israeli defense establishment.

The deal, signed in September and not previously reported, is the department’s largest contract to purchase weapons from an Israeli company in available records.

에바와는 조금 다르다고 보는데, 에바의 경우 그 느슨한 얼개처럼 보이는 공간에서 팬들이 신나게 놀고 있지만, 사실 그곳에는 공간이 없다. 그 얼개는 안노가 의도한 해석만이 존재하는 공백일 뿐이다. 이는 이후의 가이낙스계 제작자들의 작품에 많은 영향을 미쳤는데, 이로 인해 지쿠악스가 숏폼 스타일의 영상이라는 평가를 받게 되었다고 생각한다. 지쿠악스의 경우 안노의 에바에서 시작된 공백같아 보이나 공백이 없는 가이낙스계 스타일의 작품이고 그래서 더 위화감이 들 수 밖에 없었다고 본다.

It turns out that fungus growing termites sometimes cultivate Termitomyces titanicus. This is an excellent scientific name.

CORRECTION:
I assumed they had to work like ants. Wrong! (A fruiting body would only emerge from a dead ant colony not so with these termites) Something about macrotermitinaes nuptial flights stimulates mushroom fruiting. (!) They get covered in pink spores.

And you can eat it!

Hence the species name.

Mass coral death at Ningaloo Reef

A fresh survey of eight sites along WA's Ningaloo Reef has revealed more than 60 per cent of corals have died.

Record water temperatures caused widespread bleaching last summer.

Of the 1,600 corals counted in March [last year], only 600 were still alive come late October.

Coral bleaching vs mortality

When the ocean get too hot, corals expel the zooxanthellae algae that lives in their tissue.

In Western Australia, the damage to coral reefs including the World Heritage-listed Ningaloo has eclipsed any previous bleaching events.

These microorganisms give corals their bright pastel colours and disease resistance.

Their absence creates the bleaching effect many Australians have become all too familiar with.

Unlike its east coast cousin, the Great Barrier Reef, the 270-kilometre Ningaloo Reef largely escaped the impact of climate change-induced ocean warming.

A giant telescope pointed at Earth's centre

The facility operates two sophisticated arrays. One consists of 24 seismometers detecting vibrations through Earth, the other eight infrasound sensors picking up ultra-low-frequency sound waves inaudible to human ears.

When North Korea detonated its largest nuclear device in September 2017 — about 7,000km away — our instruments captured it clearly.

Located 37km southeast of Tennant Creek — or Jurnkkurakurr, as it's known in the local Warumungu language — Warramunga consists of what might generously be called a demountable building, surrounded by sensors lined up across 20km of savannah, covered by red soil and long, white spinifex grass.

Warramunga detected all six of North Korea's declared nuclear tests, and our data was among the first to reach the International Data Centre in Vienna.

" When a wild brumby gallops past our sensors, we pick it up. When a nuclear bomb is tested on the other side of the world, we definitely know about it."

Before opening Meg's Bookshop in 1991, the Arnolds were told kids 'didn't read' in Port Pirie

After 35 years, Margie and Mark Arnold have closed the doors for the final time at Meg's Bookshop in the smelter city of Port Pirie.

The couple are being celebrated for their contribution to the community, including Margie Arnold’s authorship of a children’s book helping families to understand the effects of lead exposure and protect children’s health.

Spies, Lies and the War on Terror by Paul Todd, 2018

This book traces the transformation of intelligence from a tool for law enforcement to a means of avoiding the law--both national and international. The "War on Terror" has seen intelligence agencies emerge as major political players. "Rendition," untrammelled surveillance, torture and detention without trial are becoming normal.




 The new culture of victimhood in the US and among partners in the "coalition of the willing" has crushed domestic liberties and formed a global network of extra-legal license. State and corporate interests are increasingly fused in the new business of privatizing fear. The authors argue that the bureaucracy and narrow political goals surrounding intelligence actually have the potential to increase the terrorist threat.
